Rotary Club of Adyar - Rotary India

From a humble seed to a Banyan Tree:

 

Then in 1984, as now, the need was to increase the membership in Rotary. It was with this objective that the Rotary Club of Madras South (RCMS)under the Presidency of Rtn Gopalswamy & at the instance of the then Dist Governor Dist.323 (now3230) Rtn Purushothaman, had at its club assembly held on 14 Dec 1984 resolved to sponsor an extension for a new club. RCMS had already sponsored the Rotary Club of Meenambakkam. There were already eleven Rotary clubs in the city of Madras and so was a hesitation.

 

The new club was to be called the “Rotary Club of Thiruvanmiyur”. Rtn R Desikan a member of the Rotary Club of Madras South was appointed Governor’s Special Representative (GSR) to take up the responsibility of getting new members & do all that was necessary to get the new club started. The DG issued the extension letter, which was received by the RCMS on Jan 01, 1985.

 

Rtn Desikan lost no time in talking to prospective members & on 27 Jan 1985- fifteen prospective members assembled for the purpose of forming a new club. Geographical areas had to be earmarked for the new club from the areas of the RCMS. All areas south of the Adyar River on the east coast up to the limits of Madras Metropolis were ceded by RCMS to the new club. (The then rule was that the club could take in members, who either resided or worked in the area of demarcation). During the preliminary meetings of the prospective members, it was decided to adopt the name ‘Rotary Club of Adyar’(instead of Thiruvanmiyur). The new club was inaugurated with 22 members on Saturday,19 February 1985 at 6.30 pm at Hotel Connemara Madras. The meeting was presided by President Rtn Gopalswamy, of RCMS & the chief guest was DG Rtn.Purushothaman. The charter president was Rtn R Desikan. The charter secretary was Rtn Ramana Prasad, Treasurer- Rtn Murli Chabbria & directors - Rtns. Lalith Sarin & Swaminathan Mani. The function was a memorable one with 75 persons attending and included the spouses. The charter from Rotary International was received dated 15 May 1985.

 

The bulletin of the club was named “Banyan Tree” (after the famous banyan tree at the theosophical Society at Adyar) & was first released in February 1985. It was a weekly bulletin with Rtn Venkatachalam as chairman of the bulletin committee & Rtn Vijay Kumar as editor. The RCA flag was released on 11 June 1985.

 

The members resolved to have the weekly meetings on Tuesdays (same as the RCMS) and at 7:00 pm. The meetings were initially held in simple surroundings at Vidya Mandir. Then, up to the end of April 1985 at the Andhra Mahila Sabha Hall at Adyar. From 5 May 1985, the meetings were shifted to Hotel Adyar Gate (now Park Sheraton & Towers). The venue of the meetings was later shifted to Hotel Savera. The members decided that ‘fellowship’ should be the unifying force for all activities. The fellowships were at members’ residences & often ‘potluck’. The fellowships were a great success & brought the family members close together.

 

The “Inner wheel club of Adyar” was started by the spouses of the Rotarians in 1986 with Ann Malathi Anantan as the charter president.

 

The club has since grown. Having adopted the CLP in 2008-09. The CLP now governs the Core objectives of the club.

 

The following pages try to capture the activities from the beginnings to the Silver Jubilee year of 2009-10.
